In fact, some have called him the most notorious rake in London. When Griffin meets Hero he thinks that she is much too intelligent for society, let alone his brother. Their duel of words soon sparks a fire in them both, despite the fact that Hero's marriage to Thomas is drawing ever nearer. . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lady Catherine Langdon is special, and not because she's the daughter of a duke. She comes from a long line of individuals born with extraordinary gifts, and she is one of the few that has a variation of all three. On the brink of war she makes a decision that will irrevocably alter the course of her life—love or duty. Asher Rossington, the Marquess of Seabrook, decided at a very early age that he would not live an idle life. His father forbade him from being a spy for the crown, but he chose to ignore it. Ash never regretted his choice, but wished he could have repaired his relationship with his father before he died. Now with the fate of the world in turmoil he has to make another hard decision—remain a spy for king and country, or go home and honor his father's title. The Great War brings Catherine and Asher into each other's lives. Only time will tell if their destiny is to be together, or if they will ultimately serve a higher purpose.

Book excerpt: Three intrepid princesses find themselves targets in a deadly plot against the crown—until their uncle devises a brilliant plan to keep them safe... Of all her sisters, Princess Stefanie is by far the least amenable to law and order, which is why she’s appalled to find herself masquerading as an unbearably drab clerk for the most honorable barrister in England. But her dull disguise turns out to have its privileges: namely, the opportunity to consort unchaperoned with her employer’s exceedingly handsome nephew, James Lambert, the Marquess of Hatherfield. Hatherfield quickly realizes that his uncle’s spirited new clerk is, in fact, a lovely young woman of daring habits. The outwardly impeccable marquis isn’t about to reveal her deception. After all, he’s hiding a dangerous secret of his own. But when one too many escapades with the madcap princess bring Hatherfield’s troubled past to light, it is only Stefanie’s sharp wits that stand between the marquis and utter disaster, and only Hatherfield’s daring that can save the princess from the shadowy agents bent on finding her.

Download or read book 2600 ST Katana written by Todds Taiano and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-07-09 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2600 Saint Katana, Matthew Toliver experiences love at first sight with the school's most enchanting young lady, an international transfer student from Portugal named Marquis Sabella. Although Marquis clarifies earlier on that her academics is her top priority, she immediately warms up to the quality of Matthew's character and befriends him. Aside from being captivated by the Portuguese heartthrob, Matthew is the fifth member of a clique known as the Wolfpack 2600, an exceptionally talented group of high school seniors whose friendship dates back to their early childhood. During the beginning of the school year, the Wolfpack 2600 enters one of the largest kart-racing competitions in the nation and triumphs, winning the trophy, the prize, and a year's worth of bragging rights. But as luck would have it, the victory is later negated by a technicality, leaving the Wolfpack with a bitter taste of disappointment. However, in the mid of dismay, Matthew cleverly uses his imagination and comes up with the idea of embarking on a joyride cruise, instantly sparking a pathway to redemption. Next, they set the idea in motion through the process of transforming their go-kart into a miniature vessel, then names it the Mark 2600. Later in time, when the finishing touches are done on the newly built craft, they launch their trip, targeting the resort island of Saint Katana, with intentions of indulging in some of its various features and activities. On the day of launching, they decide to capture all their adventurous experiences on videotape, then reserve the film footage for their forthcoming documentary. Shortly after the cruise is underway, the teenagers encounter a terrifying aquatic predator in hot pursuit, causing them to fearfully veer off course. Luckily, they evade the predator but wind up arriving on the northwest end of the Mexico shoreline. After that, the teenagers take a moment to regroup, and in doing so, they inadvertently discover a mysterious case containing an ancient book of diagrams that reveals manufacturing sequences of futuristic technological weaponry. This case is believed to be left behind centuries ago by supreme beings of another world. Coincidentally, Carlos Sepulveda, aka Mayacub, a notorious underworld criminal from the Baja California peninsula, aspires beyond ordinary when he robs a museum of a prestigious document that summarizes a description and possible whereabouts of a codex that illustrates a quantum leap in weapons manufacture. The stolen document also indicates that the codex is concealed inside of a case made of pure gold. Soon afterward, he conducts a search throughout the region to unearth the artifact. Inevitably, the Wolfpack 2600 becomes an imminent target by discovering the very object that Mayacub has been relentlessly seeking. Immediately after the Wolfpack's great discovery, they strive to keep it secret yet find themselves being hunted by Mayacub, who catches up with them and forcefully takes possession of the codex. After finally taking possession of the artifact, Mayacub's first objective is to develop futuristic technological weapons while growing his army in the process. Secondly, he intends to launch a series of attacks on small sovereign territories until he establishes himself as a modern-day monarch. Lastly, he aims to generate more wealth by conducting arms deals on the black market--the makings of a new era of world terrorism. Surprisingly, the Wolfpack's cameraman, Charles, has photographed each page of the codex sometime before it is taken by Mayacub's henchmen. So now, in an effort to stop Mayacub, the Wolfpack returns to their clubhouse, referred to as the Headquarters, and uses the photos of the codex's instructional designs to build a defense system for the Mark 2600, fortifying its exterior to safeguard from destructive impacts of a combat situation that's likely to happen. They also use the codex's instructions to develop and install new technology in its interior to counter the enemy's possible use of an EMP weapon. Afterward, they begin formulating strategies to stop Mayacub. Later, this reinforced vessel becomes a critical component in aiding the Wolfpack to recover the artifact, reverse a $30,000,000 heist, capture the most-wanted criminal for the Mexican authorities, and prevent a new era of terrorism--a joyride cruise that ultimately becomes an adventure and converts these dazzling teenagers into brave heroes.
Book Synopsis Introduction to Psychotherapy by : J. A. Hadfield
Download or read book Introduction to Psychotherapy written by J. A. Hadfield and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1967, the original blurb reads: This book is intended to give the intelligent lay reader a comprehensive view of the subject of psychotherapy, the treatment of nervous disorders by mental means. These disorders are of increasing importance on account of their wide-spread nature and of the misery they produce. It describes the development of psychotherapy as employed by the most primitive peoples and races, through animal magnetism and hypnotism to the more modern analytical schools of Freud, Jung and Adler. It sets out in particular to give the positive contributions of these various systems, although this does not preclude criticism of their weaknesses and more dubious theories. Dr Hadfield has had the widest experience, having treated psychoneurotic disorders for over fifty years, including the war neuroses in the two world wars, both in the Navy and in the Army; and, as Lecturer in the University of London in the subject for over forty years, he has had the opportunity to systematize the knowledge thus obtained. As a result of this experience he has come to conclusions as to the nature, causes and treatment of such disorders differing somewhat from those of the established Schools, and it is these findings which are given in the latter part of the book under the title, ‘Direct Reductive Analysis’. The book will be useful to all those – teachers and parsons as well as medicals – who have to deal with human beings and their aberrations, and to them it is addressed.
